Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Castle Vale

My fiance and I are refinancing our maisonette in Castle Vale with Kent Reliance. We have a son 19 who lives at home. Our solicitor has asked us to disclose any adults other than ourselves who reside at the property. Our lawyer has now e-mailed a document for our son to sign, waiving any legal rights in the event that the flat is forfeited by the lender. I have two questions (1) Is this form unique to the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel as he did not need to sign this form when we bought 4 years ago (2) In signing this form is our son in any way compromising his right to inherit the property?

On the face of it your lawyer has done nothing wrong as it is established procedure for any occupier who is aged 17 or over to sign the necessary Consent Form, which is purely to state that any rights he has in the property are postponed and secondary to Kent Reliance. This is solely used to protect Kent Reliance if the property were re-possessed so that in such circumstances, your son would be legally obliged to leave. It does not impact your son’s right to inherit the apartment. Please note that if your son were to inherit and the mortgage in favour of Kent Reliance had not been discharged, he would be liable to take over the loan or pay it off, but other than that, there is nothing stopping him from keeping the property in accordance with your will or the rules of intestacy.

The purchaser’s solicitors will also commission an environmental report. This will disclose whether there is any known flood risk. If so, additional investigations will need to be conducted.

I am planning to sell a garage which is on a separate legal title with the land registry asking for 30k, to clear debts. There is a mortgage with Barclays. Can you refer me to a cheapish lawyer as the standard £800-1000 reduces the return somewhat. Although I live in Castle Vale I dont need to use a Castle Vale conveyancing practitioner.
